When installing via Architect, it generates an invalid /etc/fstab (for me) with an invalid option, causing the FS to become mounted read-only and failing to boot.
To reproduce:
install architect
try to boot
To fix:
boot to GRUB by spamming esc on boot
press e
scroll down to the line that says linux ...
change ro (read-only) to rw (read-write) to force a proper mount (temporary solution as fsck runs improperly here)
press ctrl+x
continue to boot
log in as your user
open terminal
attempt to run mount -o remount /
check dmesg --human
see invalid option error
nano /etc/fstab, change the / mount options from rw,[...others] ([...others] is a set of other options) to rw,defaults
Check your grub configuration in /etc/default/grub
The last line GRUB_ROO_FS_RO=true … or false
what is that error?
Configuring mount options in /etc/fstab was part of the installation procedure.
You probably just missed a step or made a mistake.
There are many of them and one can get a bit lost …
I just did an install of XFCE using Architekt in a VM and it boots and works flawlessly.
nano /etc/fstab, change the / mount options from rw,[...others] ([...others] is a set of other options)
to rw,defaults
change from rw to rw? - so your change essentially did nothing and isn’t/wasn’t the cause
However, the here glanced over other options may have been …
I chose rw,noatime in the VM
On my real system I have rw,relatime
In /etc/default/grub the “read only” option is set in both.
